After witnessing other Mario sub-series Customs sections are separated from the Mario Customs section because this main Mario section is too big. I wanted to make the new sections:
Mario Kart Customs
Super Mario Bros. 2 Customs
Mario & Luigi, Paper Mario, Super Mario RPG, Yoshi, and Wario are separate because their games have a ton of original characters and ideas that aren't part of the main Mario line. Mario Kart doesn't really bring any original characters into the mix aside from baby versions of the characters. It's just mainline Mario characters in racing karts, sure the race tracks could be counted as "original content" but that's not enough to really warrant a new game section.
As for Super Mario 2? Most of the characters from that game (mainly Shy Guy and Birdo) are staples of the mainline Mario games. That game never had any followup that played in that style, so it'd be redundant to just make a section dedicated to that one game.

I know about the RPGs, Yoshi and Wario. Also the other sub-series are Donkey Kong, Wrecking Crew and Luigi's Mansion.
Mario Media Customs must be separated from the main Mario line.

You could go with heroes, villains and side characters, but then, a lot of characters would be debatable as they flip flop throughout games.

Personally I think the character sections are just fine the way they are. If you have "heroes" and have all of the Mario, Luigi, Peach etc sheets, it'd be a huge mess.

Mario Arcade Category has 17 sprite sheets. All of them are from Mario Bros. Why not gonna make Mario Bros. Custom section?
Even Nintendo, themselves are blurring the Arcade series and SMB-proper lines. Look at Odyssey and its using DK sprites.
I could see MAYBE splitting Wrecking Crew, but Mario Bros and Donkey Kong are much tougher to do at this point, so why bother?
